Answer 6

You will when dealing with natural supplements that not all products work for all people. Before adding a new supplement to your daily regimen, you should consult your healthcare practitioner. You should allow 4-6 weeks to assess the effectiveness of new supplement to your daily regimen.I have found great success with a product called Nutracool. The ingredients for the Nutracool are:
Organic Emu Oil - Soothing Australian oil has been used for thousands of years to soothe and comfort stiff achy joints. It's rich in omega 3 fatty acids, which fight harmful hormone build-up in joints which can cause stiffness. It has been shown to penetrate to quickly the skin while helping to provide temporary pain relief.

Organic Whole Leaf Aloe Vera - This refined form of aloe has the ability to penetrate deep through the skin reaching into aching joints and muscles. Not only does this natural wonder help soothe tender muscles, nerves, and joints, it also moisturizes skin and aids in the healing of minor cuts, scratches, and burns.

Quantum Silver - Exclusive formula that uses 99.999% pure microscopic particles of silver (estimated at 10 parts per million) plus carbon-filtered distilled water for maximum penetration into the skin. Silver has demonstrated an ability to fight germs, bacteria, yeast, and is believed to help sooth tender joints and muscles.

Metabolic MSM - Special pharmaceutical grade of MSM quickly penetrates the skin. MSM is believed to help build a barrier against pain transmissions. MSM (organic sulfur) makes up 10% of your body's mineral content , but drops with age. And it's vital in forming collagen and nourishing tissues and joint cartilage.

Organic Apple Cider Vinegar - Naturally contains huge quantities of vitamins, minerals, and organic compounds which have been found to be of tremendous benefit in soothing muscles and joints while promoting optimum circulation.


Capsaicin - Time honored herb helps bring warm, soothing relief to sensitive muscles, tissues, and joints. It has been widely used as a buffer against sore aching areas within the body.

Homeopathic Pain Remedy - Unique homeopathic formula that contains 12 potent preparations, specifically calibrated to fight aches and pains without side effects.

Essential Oils

Organic St. Johns Wort Oil- Aids the body's normal healing response to over-worked muscles, spinal strain, and stiff joints.
Organic Helichrysum - Works wonders when messaged into sore muscles and joints.
Organic Lavender _ Wonderful smelling oil helps promote mental calmness. And its natural botanicals help soothe skin.
Organic Blue Chamomile - Relaxing herb which helps calm both mind and body, while simultaneously soothing the skin.
Oregano Oil - The powerful astringent properties in our wild Mediterranean oil act as a potent defender against germs, and fight hormones that can cause joint and muscle tenderness.
Camphor Oil - Helps stimulate circulation while soothe over worked muscles and joints.
Menthol Oil - Refereed to as "nature's anesthesia" because of its ability to produce the comforting sensation of warmth.

I have tried a number of products over the years, and I have found this product works best for me. My dad who is an avid runner also take the product, he suffers from hip and knee pain due to the constant pounding on his hips and knees from his long distance running.
